[pkg-fso-maint] Bug#559483: fso-gpsd: Provides: gpsd is just *wrong*

[Bernd Zeimetz]

Package: fso-gpsd
Severity: serious

fso-gpsd should never provide gpsd, as it supports only a very tiny
bit of the functions gpsd provides. I'm filing this bug
as release critical, as the broken provides will break at least
all applications which use libgps to talk to gpsd. While it
might be that this works at the moment because you're lucky,
it will definitely break with the next upload of gpsd as the
protocol changed.
Also all programs which rely on the dbus announcements of gpsd
will break (yes, fso-gpsd is not compatible with that). Not to
forget that fso-gpsd does only supports a few of the amount of
chipsets supported properly by gpsd.
